oh  i love how you turned it around

cause lie xander said run to buffy in in to the woods

Glad Xander came to his senses. Love the Willow/Tara.

I loved Buffy's speech and the acceptance she demanded for Spike whether or not he takes her back. I'm glad that Xander finally realized that Buffy would never be his and what his foolishness was costing him.

Will he make it? Will Anya take him back? I am off toread 25.

For thefirst time xander is doing something smart

Great JL, very sweet Buffy and Happy Birthday.

That was cool, the way you switched Buffy and Xander's roles there.  Nice chapter. :)

excellent read. very good to see buffy speak the truth. very sad to see that xander might have an opportunity to redeem himself with anya. he does not deserve her. thanks for the wonderful read.

Nice speech by Buffy. Will Anya take Xander back? It's too bad she loves him; she deserves better. Is it Spuffy now?

Yeah. Run, Xander. Run into a big pit full of pointy sticks, acid, and venomous snakes... and bunch of other nasty stuff

Well, finally...on so many counts.

Great chapter. I am glad that Buffy was completely honest with her friends, herself and Spike. I hope it is not too late for Xander but he should have to do a lot of begging to Anya.

Loved this chapter and what you did between Buffy and Spike! For her to finally be open and honest and let everyone know was just great and I thank you for that. I probably won't be able to handle Blood Bound for a little bit since I am too exhausted from packing and getting ready to move. I know, a coward...I will wait until I get to LA.

xander not very bright is he! he's only just realized that buffy's not intrested in him poor boy what it must be like to live in ignorance. there's a word that describes him perfectly ignoramus.well done buffy for standing up and telling them all how she's been feeling even if is because of the truth spell. perhaps spike's trust in her is going to grow again nowhe knows she can't lie.as for dawn it about time she learnt not to express wishes to complete strangers. as always jl brillant update

Well, the light dawns! Hallelujah. Love the speech she made, it's a shame it took a truth spell for her to do it though. And, Buffy telling Xander to "Run" after Anya, is just kinda poetic irony. Since I'm a sucker for a happy ending, I hope that he catches her, and they work things out. Can't wait for the next update.

It's about time he got knocked on the side of the head with a clue-by-four.

Lovely speach from Buffy as well.

Took him long enough.
Great chapter! =)

At last - Buffy is being straight with everyone. Never thought I'd live so long!
